Villarreal’s signing of Israel international Manor Solomon on transfer deadline day causes fan backlash.
Spanish club Villarreal is facing backlash from some of its fans after a last-minute deal to sign an Israeli player who has publicly supported his nation in its war on Gaza.
Some fans criticised Villarreal through social media posts after the club signed forward Manor Solomon near the end of the transfer deadline late on Monday.
The 26-year-old Solomon arrived after Villarreal struck a loan deal with Tottenham.
The Israel international played last season on loan with Leeds United, which he helped gain promotion to the Premier League.
